Wow, Getting It Together Slowly

I am still enjoying company after the Christmas Holidays, my son and grandson have been here on an extended visit while he does some work for a client. You can't imagine how much fun I have been having, and getting the house back together is definitely on the back burner. Today as I dusted I thought I really needed to put somethng on the end table by my chair. Now if you know me you know that nothing but the lamp for a couple of weeks is definitely not like me.

A quick trip to the shelves where everything is stashed when not in use and these are the first things I saw, so that's exactly what I am using.

A totally odd combination, however it works for me. Seems like anything vintage goes together.

So, until I can really clean and create after my company leaves, at least the table isn't bare.

My son is almost finished with his work, and they are planning on leaving for home in Oregon next Wednesday, so I am going to spend as much time as I can with them this week. I will check in when I get a chance.

Oh Marty, you encourage me to get some of my things out to give the place some new life. I like the vignette you put together. Of course I like all of the vignettes you put together! I am just now getting back into the swing of decorating after a very long break. Guess I will see what I can find!
